  1. 4/5Good but not perfect

    This app could easily be 5 stars and it was when I first used it in January, but there’s an issue I noticed lately when translating phrases from English to Spanish. When o translate phrases from English to Spanish it basically translates the phrase into Spanish, but right next to half of the original phrase in English. So if I tried to translate “hey, today is going to a wonderful day” it would be like this “hey, today is gOye, hoy va a ser un día maravilloso” and I just translated that using the app. That’s literally all it needs work on and if that was fixed, this app is flawless as I purchased premium because I enjoyed it since I first used in in January, unfortunately this little issue with the translation holds it back. Please fix and I would change my rating to 6 stars. Thanks

  2. 5/5Small bug

    I’d like to start off by saying that I love this app and use it pretty consistently. I’d totally upgrade to premium...if I weren’t broke. I am not here to complain about the fact that I must pay which seems to be the other reviews as I’ve read and completely understand that this comes out of your own pocket. My issue is that there’s what I can only assume is a glitch in my app. I have full access allowed for TransKey but when I go to translate and try to select a language it appears blank. Even when I’m selecting a language for a slot that already has one filled in. Say English as it is the base for me. If I tap on it it brings up the language selector but has no languages filled in. I understand that you may have moved away from this and may no longer be supporting it. So please let me know. Thank you for the fantastic service!

  3. 5/5Has a lot of potential

    First, the creator of this app is very responsive and helpful. That is a huge plus in itself. I am changing my rating to 5 stars for that reason. If you converse in other languages much, the easy use and capabilities of this app make it an excellent option. The free use is very limited, but the premium service is reasonably priced if you will use it regularly. Just be aware in advance of exactly what you are gettin: premium is a monthly or yearly fee. Don’t rate the app lower because you have to pay for the service—that’s how the app works. It’s the free part that is the extra. And it’s waaaay cheaper than most “in-app purchase” apps. $1.99/month or less than $1/month if paid yearly...for unlimited easy, in-app translations and a developer who responds well? Definitely worth the cost in my opinion.

  4. 5/5It’s ok just some adjustments

    This app is great for whenever you want to communicate with someone that is close to you but you can’t speak there language which happens a lot, so this app is perfect, but there is this one feature on the app that makes me not really like the app. When I watch an add to get a few more translations it does not pop up when I access the keyboard in stead it shows the same amount before I watched an add, either fix this or please tell me why it does this cause if it won’t give me translations there is no point in putting that there just to advertise. And my email also does not work for it it works for every other app, but this app it says there is an error, please fix this, overall this app is great.

  5. 4/5Great app, not so great system

    So first off, I’d just like to say I REALLY like this keyboard app. It’s quick, useful, and easy to use. It definitely has something going for it. My problem is the whole “Premium” thing. Now, I understand having premium in-app purchases, but I feel they should limit the amount of characters you use. I would personally prefer something like a restriction on the languages, rather than the characters. I.E., me and my friend where texting in Swedish, having fun. Then, I ran out of characters, keeping me from communicating with my friend in Swedish w/ our the use of google translate or another app. In conclusion, I can see that this article p has a bright future, but that character limit REALLY has an effect on non premium users. Thank you for reading this review.

  • 1.12.0

    They said it was impossible. They said it couldn't be done. They said translating the entire message was a myth and "last sentence" was the best we could hope for. Well TransKey 1.12.0 is here to prove them wrong! Starting today, the entire message (not just the last sentence) will be translated allowing for even easier multi-sentence cross-language communication. And as if that wasn't enough, we've also made serious improvements to the Free Tier that we hope you'll love! In addition to scrapping the character-based limit for 10 translations per day, we've also given you additional options for extra translations ranging from answering a survey to watching an ad. Cha-ching. Should you run into any problems, reach us any time at [email protected]. And if you're enjoying TransKey, please consider leaving a review in the App Store. I'd really appreciate it!
